I attended Women's History Month Breakfast hosted by Fairfax County Commission for Women. The commemoration began in 1978 as "Women's History day" in California. It has been a long journey for promoting women's rights including the right to bodily integrity and autonomy, to be free from sexual violence, to vote, to hold public office, to enter into legal contracts, to have equal rights in family law, to work, to fair wages or equal pay, to have reproductive rights, to own property, and to education.
